Re-installed Nvidia card...now screen has a blue tint

[Martingale00]

Hello. I pulled my 7900GS for another computer and used onboard video for awhile, tonight I put it back in. I went to BIOS, designated the video adapter as PCI, loaded the drivers, and then the screen developed this horrible blue tint to it. It's not the adjustments on the monitor or in the Nvidia control I don't think...it should be at the default settings and it's never been this blue before. I had to go back to on board because it was bad. Any ideas on how to correct this? I already tried the color correcting thing in the Nvidia control panel.

Bingo, thanks a bunch. The threaded pieces on the video card looked suspiciously like motherboard standoffs....problemed solved.

Yeah it only had to be a difference of a few millimeters at the connection but the screen looked like crap.
